convenience pack 4

I have convenience pack 4 for warp 4 which I obtained some time ago and
never installed. Now I want to update my warp 4 installation which has had
no fixpaks applied. Can I use loaddskf to extract each file to a floppy and
apply it in the same way as a fixpak using the CSF tool. Or must I
re-install warp 4 and choose to add the conpak during the install?

The convenience pack CDs are a complete replacement for Warp 4.

You boot using the "Install" CD then follow the directions to upgrade
your system

Not sure I understand. I have a file called xr_c004.zip, about 22mb. It
contains files from xr_c004.1dk to xr_c004.hdk. If I unzip these and apply
loaddskf nothing happens.

Thanks, Steve

That is fixpack 4, for the OS/2 convenience pack. It cannot be applied
as a fixpack to the original Warp 4.
